Our Mission, our Values

Our mission

To train the talent and develop the knowledge that moves the world forward.

Firms are increasingly looking for people who can manage projects and multicultural teams in an international environment to drive their development,

Our mission is to shape this talent by transmitting the know-how and the people skills that are needed. This implies developing a clear vision of tomorrow's world.

Our ambition


To move businesses, society, and the world forward.

We aim to do this by developing the talent and the values in our future alumni that will take them towards excellence and ensure they are the builders of a better world. At the same time, by creating an added value that is useful to everyone, thanks to the research conducted by our teaching faculty.

Our values



Three central values underlie EDHEC's activities:

  • Relevance: Our intention is to find the most suitable solutions for our students and for business. For this reason, market pertinence is a key value in all - including academic - aspects of our organisational culture. By respecting this value, we seek to reconcile Academia with the business world through the extension of our research effort into the corporate realm.
  • Responsibility: We educate people and carry out research that aim to develop both scientific and human competency, preparing men and women who are committed to using their skills for the good of society.
  • Innovation: We have a long-standing commitment to a culture that fosters creativity, risk-taking, continuous improvement, leadership and entrepreneurial spirit, both in our pedagogy and in our research.

Our aim


 
To be the first choice business school for European firms by 2010

It is the market that will express this preference.

It is the market that will express business organisations' demand for our students, our programmes and our research because the market appreciates the force of our values, the fit between our courses and their needs, and the quality of responses offered by our research to the new challenges that the business world and society must confront.
